Thanks

This video needs more somber music that really brings home the feeling of cutting up your throat.

I have palatal prolapse. Can you recommend a procedure or exercises? Thanks for any info you might have.

There's also epiglottis surgery for rare cases

I wish there was a non surgical approach to the lingual tonsils 😭

I need them all, except upper airway stimulation

What about Bimax advancement? They tongue needs more space!

Bimax advancement has a success rate of > 90-95%

Hello my daughter is 12 years of age. She has severe sleep apnea and is currently on CPAP. She had the adeniodectomy at age 8 with no results. What would you suggest?

12 years is still young. she can be fixed before it is too late. the real cause of of sleep apnea is a recessed jaw. is she a mouth breather? does her mouth/lips remain open at rest? her jaws need to be moved forward. at 12 years old this can be fixed non surgically. please see a maxillofacial surgeon for their thoughts. there is something called a Herbst appliance which can help to bring the jaws forward. not only do forward grown jaws prevent sleep apnea, they are also the most important thing about facial aesthetics. look up “ante face” to see what i mean. please help your daughter before it’s too late. i myself didn’t know any of this when i was younger and now i’m permanently fucked

@@KFC-rl9wr Thank you so much. Yes she is a mouth breather and therefore nose cpap is satan to her. And also I am sorry how it turned out for you

My nose is always closed, there is a lot of problem in breathing. And sleep breaks again and again at night..

​@@onlinemaza4241 get a sleep study from your General Practitioner and see an Ear Nose Throat (ENT) Spiritualist. 1. Technology has improved to where sleep study kits can be sent to you directly. This means no going to a clinic for a sleep study. This is how my doctor conclusively determined I have sleep apnea. 2. I was sent a CPAP for sleep apnea, but even then I was not getting as much relief as I thought. I went to an ENT that determined my tonsils blocked my airway and nasal passages that outpatient tonsillectomy was b performed. I'm 15 days post-surgery, and my general wellbeing has significantly improved because I can actually breathe through my nose again. This is by no means advice. I'm not a medical expert. I'm only telling you my experience and journey!!

Had a turbinate reduction with my septoplasty for a deviated septum. It sucks for a week after but highly recommend. Empty nose syndrome is generally caused from direct incision which is the old technique to my understanding . They currently use radio frequency waves to reduce the size.

I had the soft pallet reduction procedure for sleep apnea. No Benefit whatsoever. With sleep apnea just my opinion, don’t do any of the soft tissue procedures. Your choices, cpap, oral appliance, combo cpap and oral appliance then Inspire. Last resort, jaw surgery.

All these are awful and incredibly stupid. The only surgery you need is MMA with counter clockwise rotation. The Jaws need to be moved forward and rotated up to cure sleep apnea.
